Where to live when you retire!!!

No NURSING HOME FOR us!!!

We'll be checking into a Holiday Inn!


With the average cost for a nursing home care costing $188.00 per  day, there is a better way when we get old and too feeble.

I've already checked on reservations at the Holiday Inn.

For a combined long term stay discount and senior discount, it's 59.23 per night.

Breakfast is included, and some have happy hours in the afternoon.

That leaves  $128.77 a day for lunch and dinner in any restaurant we want, or room service, laundry, gratuities and special TV movies.

Plus, they provide a spa, swimming pool, a workout room, a lounge and washer-dryer, etc.
money 
Most have free toothpaste and razors, and all have free shampoo and soap.


$5 worth of tips a day you'll have the entire staff scrambling to help you.

They treat you like a customer, not a patient.

There's a city bus stop out front, and seniors ride free.
The handicap bus will also pick you up (if you fake a decent limp).
church 
To meet other nice people, call a church bus on Sundays.

For a change of scenery, take the airport shuttle bus and eat at one carof the nice restaurants there.

While you're at the airport, fly somewhere.  Otherwise, the cash keeps building up.

And, you're not stuck in one place forever -- you can move from Inn to Inn, or even from city to city.

Want to see  Hawaii ?  They have Holiday Inn there too.

TV broken?  Light bulbs need changing?  Need a mattress replaced?  No problem.. They fix everything,  and apologize for the inconvenience.


The Inn has a night security person and daily room service. The maid checks to see if you are ok.  If not, they'll call an ambulance . . . or the undertaker.
 
If you fall and break a hip, Medicare will pay for the hip, and Holiday Inn will upgrade you to a suite for the rest of your life.

And no worries about visits from family. They will always be glad to find you, and probably check in for a few days mini-vacation.
pool 
The grandkids can use the pool.
       
What more could we ask for?

So, when I reach that golden age, I'll face it with a grin.
We'll be checking into a Holiday Inn!

 (Another cutie from Hyder I had to pass on.  They didn't use on their blog so I did!  Hopefully, you'll get a chuckle out of it.  I did.  And, you always know when I post one of these that I've just been way too busy to write my own blog.  Perhaps, I'll get with tonight.  If not, perhaps, tomorrow.  Tomorrow is moving day though so ... maybe not tomorrow.)
